ART 106J gives students experience in the fabrication and casting of three-dimensional forms on a small scale including jewelry, small-scale sculpture, and miniature multi-media art. Fabrication techniques may include cutting, joining, surface decorating, and finishing. Casting techniques may include the use of wax and organic materials for the lost wax process. Upon successful completion of ART 106J, the student should be able to: Demonstrate the following small-scale fabrication processes: sawing, piercing, wiring, gluing, filing, sanding, buffing, polishing, and selected decorative surface techniques. Demonstrate the following small-scale casting processes: assemblage and carving. Utilize creative problem solving and visualization in the sculpting process. Successfully apply the visual elements of line, shape, space, value, color, pattern, texture, motion, and the design principles of balance, rhythm, emphasis, contrast, proportion, variation, repetition, and unity to small-scale sculpture, jewelry, and miniature multi-media art assignments. Experiment by taking risks through the process of exploration during the creative problem solving process. Describe the evolution of small-scale sculpture from prehistoric to the present, and the effect science and technology has had on its development. Explain how attitudes and values of various other cultures have shaped their aesthetics in creating small-scale sculpture. Complete the creative problem-solving process from the preliminary planning stage and exploration through revisions to the final product. Give examples of historical and contemporary small-scale sculpture. Make individual creative decisions, based on the principles of art and elements of design.
